"You!"

Without giving these Demon Kings and Demon Lords a chance to continue speaking, Qi Xiu raised both arms high, suddenly activating the immense and boundless power within him. The Five Elements Li Fire Domain below him burst forth completely, with the endless Red Lotus Karmic Fire becoming even more domineering with the power of the Five Elements.

In just a moment!

The Demon Kings and Demon Lords below were all engulfed by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, turning into screaming figures drowned in that crimson, eerie firelight.

Under the terrifying power of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, which scorched all things into emptiness,

these Demon Kings and Demon Lords, capable of traversing mountains and sweeping across thousands of miles, gradually transformed into pure and singular fleshly masses.

"Though the Red Lotus Karmic Fire is dangerous, it indeed serves as an excellent fire source for alchemy.

Without a trace of Karmic Cause and Effect, returning to the origin, as pure and singular innate flesh and blood.

It's perfectly suitable as a primary material for refining the Rejuvenation Blood Pill."

Sitting on Qi Xiu's shoulder, Xu Zhitian nodded in satisfaction at the twenty-odd flesh masses refined by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

"Gather your things, let's head back.

I sense a dozen Primordial Spirit Level auras approaching this way.

If not handled well, a clash of Primordials might occur.

You, a Junior True Lord, should steer clear sooner rather than later."

At Xu Zhitian's reminder, Qi Xiu cast a spell to collect the flesh masses formed from the Demon Kings and Demon Lords.

At this moment, figures exuding calm and unadorned auras arrived, stepping on Qingyun, Divine Light, displaying various techniques.

They were the sect leaders and family heads of the Ancient Sect Nobility in Dianchuan Province.

"Kid, long time no see; your skills have indeed grown more powerful. Dongfang really knows how to brag; I see not much of this was taught by him."

Sitting on an old ox, smoking a pipe, Zhao Gengyun cheerfully greeted Qi Xiu, simultaneously taking a dig at Dongfang Qing.

"Junior greets the True Venerable of Nature, it's been many years since we last met; how is Zaiyang?"

To Zhao Gengyun, a veritable living fossil, Qi Xiu held much respect, not just because, without his help back then, Qi Xiu wouldn't have known when he could have cultivated the Hunyuan Myriad Laws Immortal Body.

But also because this senior, despite being the top in strength across Dianchuan and highly respected, never relied on power or status to oppress others.

Generous and magnanimous, he held a great reputation among the Human Race.

"Not bad, although I've also reached the True Monarch Realm, compared to you, I'm far behind. Come visit my Nature Banner when you have time.

You're considered peers, having shared life and death experiences, so keep in touch and guide his cultivation."

"I wouldn't dare, Brother Zaiyang's aptitude is outstanding, and with a senior guiding him personally, reaching the Primordial Spirit is certainly assured."

Qi Xiu's flattery made Zhao Gengyun burst into hearty laughter:

"You're quite the talker, alright, you head off now, some shameless scoundrels are coming.

Move further away so you won't get accidentally hurt."

"Yes, I shall take my leave then."

Bowing, Qi Xiu transformed into a streak of dazzling Thunder Light, charging thousands of miles away in an instant, leaving the area.

Watching the young Daoist depart, Zhao Gengyun exhaled a cloud of smoke, turning to Dongfang Qing, who deliberately arrived late:

"Alright Dongfang, no more hiding, your disciple is truly exceptional.

Honestly, I'm a bit envious of you."

"Elder Zhao, as you just said, I haven't really taught him much. His natural talent and brilliance would shine brightly, even if he started at an unknown Wild Fox Zen." With hands in pockets and a slight smile, Dongfang Qing gradually revealed himself.

"Oh, so humble? That's not like you." Surprised, Zhao Gengyun glanced at Dongfang Qing with a chuckle.

"There are no outsiders here, might as well tell you the truth." Dongfang Qing replied calmly.

At that moment, more than a dozen dreadful shadows, covering the sky and shaking all heavens, descended upon Dianchuan Province from above. The terrifying and overwhelming murderous might caused the world to lose its color, as if wanting to burst this whole space apart.

Dianchuan Province seemed to be shrouded in a massive shadow, turning dark as night.

Primordial Spirit Realm's Demon Ancestor Demon Venerables!

With Qi Xiu trapping and killing numerous Demon Kings and Demon Lords, preventing the master's rescue and withholding the hand, causing continuous losses to their side.

These Demon Ancestor Demon Venerables could no longer sit still, descending personally, as if to engage in a battle against the Human Clan's True Venerables.

"Release Wulin!"

Amidst the black and silver, a pair of hellish crimson eyes lit up. As a deep voice resonated, Zhou Meng's expression changed slightly, as the previously sparkling golden sand at his feet began to turn to mud at a visible speed.

Swish—

In the brief moment of his distraction, the golden sand hand suppressing the demonic hand suddenly shattered into pieces by countless black lights, allowing the nearly severed demonic hand to quickly break free.

"Hmph!"

Yet just as the demonic hand was about to escape, Song Yue of the Iron Bone Sword Sect suddenly let out a cold snort, gripping his longsword with one hand.

In the next instant!

Infinite sword light tearing through the sky flashed violently, a terrifying sword beam, dividing heaven and earth and splitting yin and yang, shot directly at the demonic hand, unleashing a flood of murderous intent to crush it, obliterating endless void.

Slash—

In an instant!

The demonic hand that was about to flee suddenly froze in place, followed by a loud explosion, shattering into countless pieces of flesh and bones, and was then shredded into nothingness by the sweeping sword light, leaving not even a trace.
